Environmental Responsibility & Energy Savings
Everyone at Hallmark Homes believes in delivering the most energy efficient, cost-effective project possible using today’s standards, materials and products.
Protecting Your Investment
Here are some of the ways we protect your investment, conserve resources, and save money:
Energy
We meet or exceed the current energy standards required in our industry.
Foundation
Foundation walls are designed to repel moisture, keeping your home’s foundation dry and secure.
Drainage
French drains are installed in every Hallmark Home, using pipes to direct ground water away from the home.
Barriers
Vapor barriers are installed beneath concrete slabs inside the home, creating a safe and comfortable environment.
Ventilation
Ventilation is used throughout the home to move humidity away from living spaces and maintain constant temperatures throughout.
Insulation
Insulation is used throughout the home to prevent heat dissipation, making your home more energy efficient and keeping utility bills lower.
Natural Gas
Natural gas appliances are recommended. These tend to be more energy efficient than electric, costing you less money in the long run.
Radiant Heat
With radiant heat in the floors, you can maintain a lower temperature throughout your home and still be comfortable.
Hot Water
On-demand hot water systems are used, so you only pay to heat the water you use.
Lighting
We install dimmer switches and motion sensors to deliver the right amount of lighting where and when you use it.
